Good Eats Bouillabaisse

I'm sitting here relaxing before work watching good eats as I usually do ( it's a repeat of the bouillabaisse episode ) and noticed that Alton opts for what looks to be a carbon sabatier in favor of his shuns. Feeling a little nostalgic are we alton? ;x. It can be seen at around 11:20 in while dicing vegies and 15:20 in while breaking down the seafood. Just thought I'd share.

I really doubt he is doing it for sponsorship reasons--his book, Gear for your Kitchen, he still says his 10" Shun Chef's is his "Desert Island" knife. He doesn't side in that book with sponsors--the "hardware stores" listed in the back are Ace, Home Depot, Lowe's, Sears, etc.

He does have a brief detail on his Carter SFGZ Santoku. Also, on the contents page there is an SFGZ Nakiri. But with knife obsession and his Julia Child love, you gotta know he's got at least a full set of Sabs.
